Will American manufacturing ever "come back"?

Asked by Demosthenes (14935points) January 28th, 2019

I.e. will America ever manufacture goods on the scale that it did around the middle of the 20th century before the decline of manufacturing and the rise of the “rust belt”? Before everything was made in China?

Politicians (cough Trump cough) have run partially on promising the return of manufacturing. What would have to change to make it happen?
